GOVERNANCE MUST BE LAWFUL

An introduction to Natural Law via preferred policy positions; most problems attempted to be solved with policy on this site, are much more completely and easily solved with the proper application of law.

The law, as in the natural law and the common law, of which our courts are based, are via negativa pursuits; they afford for sentencing to be sought, restitutions to be extracted, punishments to be levied, and legislation to ensure no future trespasses of the like take place. When we enter into positive or constructive law we must assure, ensure, and insure that all proposals are in fact lawful.

All policies ought to pass through the judiciary to ensure lawfulness, commonality, and concurrency.

Policies, just like, standards, mandates, licensing, rules, regulations, initiative, etc. are examples of positive law; these are affirmative, or constructive guidelines telling a person, persons, or people how to go about a specific a interaction or chain thereof.

Policies like term limits, outright bans of ownership, obligations outside of those constructed by the constitutions of the territories one finds themselves upon, infringements on life, liberty, & property, implied or enforced involuntary participation in markets, recording & reporting personal data are unlawful pursuits and require undermining the law in order to implement them.

Rights, obligations, and inalienables are our civilizational ROI.

The more anti-fragile and robust your reciprocal insurance of self-determination is the more rights any given polity can offer their constituency. Inalienables such as the first amendment which insists on truth before face regardless of cost in brining grievances to up the hierarchy of governance, and the second which states quite clearly the forgoing of the bearing of arms is a criminal offense are the bedrock for producing the obligations in upholding those inalienables and in the provision of rights that ride upon them.

All rights are produced by peoples and are contingent upon the competence of those peoples in defense of those rights to uphold them. There are no God-given rights; this is a horrid enlightenment misconception. If this were truly the case; God’s hand would stop every abortion before it happened, but alas, He appears impotent in this matter. All rights are constructed by peoples and peoples must submit to the law to uphold them.

Here, I’ll go through each category and highlight unlawful incongruencies in policy creation and stability seeking. Many demonstrate thinking that some over-lay of intelligent rules will keep humans from acting outside of them. But, historically, only the law has corralled behaviors enough to put eugenic pressure on any given polity. And those laws that do the most good, set hard limits for those breaking them.

HEALTH

Health is party correspondent with life, with-in the trifunctional nature of the US pursuit of happiness (excellence); the other part of course is family.

Health can’t be mandated. No one can force another to be healthily. But, we can remove all unhealthy (harmful) options from options & action, and insure all actions that are inherently dangerous with-in any given market to off-set the damages to health participation in these markets may cause.

Mental health isn’t a problem; physical health is. We don’t have a mental health epidemic, we’ve got physical health, food, drug, compatibility, and cooperative dysfunction problems. There isn’t anything wrong with people other than poisonous inputs; from food to ideologies.

Fixing health requires, like most areas of decline, a reemergence of the family as the center and focus of all policy creation, and the family unit as the smallest pollical unit and the removal of unlawful pursuit at the expense of other polity members by externality.

FOOD

The US can easily be food independent. And ought to be. We also ought to use our position as the number one food exporter of the world to put pressure on countries to adopt lawful legal practices and agency creating market places so we don’t suffer the externality of a constantly growing under class of people receiving handouts worldwide.

Adding poisons to food is criminality and punishable by law.

Food sovereignty, seed stores(storage), ecological stewardship, evolved building and community creation practices are needed components for a healthy pro-social functioning system of food supply.

LIBERTY

Showing mercy to criminals is to attack the innocent. The West, advanced cultures, and all those who have produced civilizations worth presiding and persisting in culled their violent criminal factions ruthlessly. We’ve a justice system here; all prefixes for justice are perversions of it; social justice means to unlawfully alter the social arena, criminal justice means to unlawfully alter the criminal arena etc.

Here in the US, we insure one another’s liberty, the courts insure justice via settlement. When either of us quit we risk ourselves and the others.

Liberty is affordances for agency and autonomy to be expressed. All positive legislation limits liberty. Now this can be done lawfully or unlawfully. The former requires commonality and concurrency, as well as, sunset criteria when the outcome of a particular legislative maneuver is completed.

ECONOMY

We have made a horrid error of epic proportions creating a monopolistic global economy. We call this the free market. The problem with this is that because the market is free the agents are not. Free market economics simple means you’re free to lie, cheat, and steal so long as you can coerce people into consent in exchange. The free market is immoral; it affords the trade of all sorts of civilizational capital (like trust) for a monopolistic measure of liquidity; dollars. We’ve brought conflict to commerce, this is untenable.

If we’re to have nations that express liberty we must have markets that are constrained to lawful interaction. Otherwise the liberty to steal from you will be taken, as it’s being taken now.

PEACE

Only sovereignty affords for peace. The ability to hold and defend a territory, where freedom isn’t the options to leave but the affordances to stay. All nations must be capable of their own defense and self-sustenance. Nations, like citizens with-in them, must be self-determined by self-determined means to be included in governance at scale.

EDUCATION

With the family as the centrality of policy creation; the parents of any given child(ren) are wholly, and solely responsible, accountable, and liable for them until they are under the explicit stewardship of another party or institutions, or have become self-determined themselves, being able to acquire citizenship.

Morals, ethics, manners, norms, and traditions are much more important than education as such. All parents ought be capable of raising a child until the on-set of sexual development as a core competency. This means raising children to 12 years of age; integrating them into the cultural surrounds, inculcating them to the civilization rules, and teaching them social sciences (the science of cooperation culminating in the Law) is foundational to creating a balanced polity with close enough ties to act pro-socially, even at an up-front price.

ENERGY & INFRASTRUCTURE

Our next iteration of capital markets ought bring capital to people instead of people to capital. All of our energy and infrastructure requires redundancy that isn’t yet built into our system. Each community, town, city, county, state, region, & nation ought to self-providing and self-sufficient across all markets where care for polity members occurs.

Currently there is only one state in the nation with the needed affordances to separate and secede without the need for additional infrastructure to be built. That state is TX, and I think voting to leave the US is on the ballot there this year.

All states ought have the provisions to exit the union. This is a built in function of our founding documents.

HOMELAND SECURITY

Legal border entry points and lawful means of obtaining work-permits, green cards, or citizenship are the only ways we ought to accept aliens from other countries. There’s no reason that the Mexican border isn’t a bullets fly zone everywhere but designated entry points. Homelands require sovereignty, sovereignty maintenance requires borders.

The US must morph from a free-for-all economic zone being pillaged by global companies, foreign countries (CCP, Israel), etc, and un-American foreign influence (WEF, WHO, etc.) into roughly 12 nations. We require the breaking out into separate nations, with various nation states emerging from them, federated in defense of the continent, in courts for interstate disputes, providing markets for exchange, a treasury for common exchange, and insurance upholding natural law.

Without the ability to be self-determined at each scale you become beholden to the holon that houses you.

The natural law is one of equilibrative retaliation. I issue this overview as education and a warning. Nature, including the nature of humans, retaliate against all unlawful maneuver in space-time through time. It’s a law as real as the laws of physics. We can create reciprocal and reciprocally bound nations and peoples. These lawful entities will usher in a golden age for humanity.

Please comment, leave questions, and otherwise interact with me and the fellows.

My name is Brandon Hayes, I’m the president of the Natural Law Institute. I am found easily, I answer messages direct and otherwise, I field questions, I can elaborate on any or all topics and content related to the Law and the organizations of polities, my institute is surely the only teaching social science completely and empirically, but I venture to guess we’re also the only teaching lawful governance and artful statecraft.

I am impossibly informed, here’s the leaderboards for topical information absorption ; I always do my due-diligence, I’ve enjoyed many of the contributions on this website; I look forward to working with many of you in the near future.

I suggest we differentiate “legislation” and “law” in the proposal above. Use “law” when referring to Natural Law, and “lawful” when the action commensurate with Natural Law. Use “legislation” when referring to documents that describe how agents shall behave in the polity without incurring criminality, i.e. via negativa.

Yes, I’m making this suggesting for everyone; differentiate between negativa (natural law [nature; reality] & common law [man; courts] and positiva legislation, mandates, etc. [governance; markets]). I’m further stating that much of what is being touted as policy positions are done so because the law (both natural and common) are not being justly applied and leaving the polity burdened with undue externality that they don’t have an answer for so under duress, ignorantly, & dangerous to deal with this overabundance of administration & bureaucracy they propose to add additional rules and authority. This is a catastrophic error in governance construction. For each new bit of legislation they ought to be forced to cull 10 times what they add; we ought be in an era of rapidly sunsetting rules and regs, but it looks like we’re gonna tower of babble the thing instead.

I disagree with the statment that we do not have a mental health crisis. We have a huge mental health problem in our country and world.
In the US the workers that are caring for the mentally ill are not required to have enough education to interact with people that are truly ill.
In addition, there is a serious need to have better understanding of mental illness and what options are available for family members.
Our society has an increasing number of people wanting to physically change their sex organs without proper mental health care.

DISAGREEMENT ISN’T A CONCERN FOR THE LAW

True or false, reciprocal or irreciprocal, decidable or undecidable; these are the concerns of the law. The mental health framing is false (not tethered to reality) & irreciprocal (causing harm to those adhering); this is a decidable conclusion based in the health metrics of the people of the US.

Mental health is an obscurant frame. It hides the real problems. As I explained above.

Your disagreement isn’t grounded reconciliation of the problem but frame alteration; and it’s incorrect.

There is no mental health without physical health; the mind isn’t separate from the body; there’s a oneness being ignored.

The number of fit, physically healthy people with what are labelled as mental health problems are exceedingly few in comparison to those with other maladies.

It’s not their minds, it’s their overall health, fitness, compatibility, and environment. The data on this is abundantly clear.

Suicides go up when suicide hotlines are installed. All measurable mental health outcomes get worse when mental health initiatives are installed.

Workers caring for the dysfunctional are under prepared for one of a few reasons. The dysfunctional patient is in the wrong care facility, this often means someone who is dysfunctional is in prison mistaken for being criminal. Or the dysfunctional patient is wrongly categorized with a disease and treated as if a compatiblistic or cooperative dysfunction can be altered by medicating the dysfunctional agent into functionality (this is most often ineffective).

Actually families need to be made responsible and accountable for their members entering into functional citizenship or residence; needing the states permission to care for your own people is bonkers; and having the state subsidize dysfunctional people by redistributing liquidity from the functional is tantamount to economically unwise theft.

Wanting to alter one’s sex is a compatibalistic dysfunction driven by perverse environmental incentives saturation. When society tells children they can garner attention by being something different; they change for the attention. It’s worst with females, as they are more sensitive to social pressure; but with the androgenization of the sexes (also from endocrine disruption, etc.) we get fewer and fewer pairs offering enough value add to be compatible any longer.

People are not mentally ill; they are functionally unfit for one another and the environment and are expressing dysfunction due to the lack of worthwhile option vectors producing value add.

Hope that helps in clarifying understanding,

I have only one problem with this, and that is the title. Specifically the word LAWFUL. LAWFUL is one of THEIR words. THEY are calling whatever THEY do LAWFUL while we KNOW that THEY are criminals. LEGAL on the other hand is a whole different thing.

Just like RULES BASED INTERNATIONAL ORDER has taken the place of INTERNATIONAL LAW in THEIR vocabulary.

Great writing - see my proposal esp #1 that ANY and ALL elected officials must study and pass a Constitutional rigorous test before they can even run.

  • we need removal of Federal & State laws, many which are unconstitutional vs more laws, esp laws written to uphold the Constitution - we need a cleaning of house across the boards.
    HEALTH
  • expand, we have a physical and spiritual issue vs the psych FYI study origins and used to refer to spiritual healing, was corrupted esp by hacks like Freud.
  • healthcare is not a RIGHT, a Right is given to us by God that the Government cannot take away. Read and share, provide comments to my short 4 part series 4 part series Why Healthcare is not a Right; Healthcare Socialism single payer - HEALTH CHAMPIONING SOLUTIONS

Yes, I distinguish legal and lawful all the time, hard to deprogram people regarding the difference.
Education:
The difficulty is who defines harmful. NO Federal Education system, remove all Federal funding to schools. We need Constitutional Sovereignty again. States and communities need to ban porn for children, etc.
Civic:
2 year mandatory miiitary or civil service should be duty in order to vote ???
